Nonparametric Estimation in Mixture Cure Models

Description

Performs nonparametric estimation in mixture cure models, and significance tests for the cure probability. For details, see López-Cheda et al. (2017a) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2016.08.002> and López-Cheda et al. (2017b) <doi:10.1007/s11749-016-0515-1>.
